Nashville Trail Half Marathon!

Join Back of the Pack for our inaugural trail half-marathon!

You heard it here first! We are hosting our first ever trail half-marathon this fall in Nashville, Tennessee! This event will be a small (limited to 30 runners!) celebration of doing hard things at our own pace.

When: Saturday, October 12th and 9am
Where: Long Hunter State Park in Nashville, Tennessee
Who: You! Everyone over 18 is welcome to join

What is the trail like? The course is mostly smooth dirt, with some paved trail, and a small amount of asphalt. The vertical gain is 450 feet for the entire course.

What is the cut-off time? The cut-off time is 2pm, which gives you 5 hours to finish (22-minute pace).

Will there be snacks provided? Yes! We will have two to three aid stations complete with traditional endurance nutrition (Skratch Labs) and other fun snacks!

Do I get a finisher’s medal? Heck yes you do! There will also be a photographer on course to capture photos of your big day!

I’ve never run a trail half-marathon before! Can you help me prepare? Yes, we can! We offer a trail half-marathon training template, 1:1 coaching, and a beginner’s trail running course.

I still have questions. Who can I contact? You can email hello@backofthepack.community and we’ll get back to you within 48 hours!
